Bike Right Warrington
Bike Right have been working with Warrington Borough Council for over 15 years, delivering the areas Bikeability programme and more recently providing adult cycle training sessions for all abilities of riders.
Our activities are managed by our local office team and delivered by a team of Warrington instructors working locally with primary, and secondary schools.
Some of the benefits of a child cycling to and from school:
Quieter, safer roads - having fewer cars around school makes it safer for parents and children to walk or cycle on their journey to and from school.
Fitness and health - children need at least an hour of physical activity each day, and walking or cycling to school is a great way to get some of that exercise.
Improved Air Quality - there are also concerns about the level of pollution children are exposed to when sitting inside cars in congested or slow-moving traffic. When planning a cycling journey to school, it may be possible to find a route that is quiet or traffic-free, and cycling through green spaces such as parks can make you feel calmer and happier
Concentration at school - children who are physically active on the way to school burn off some of their excess energy and are more able to settle down and focus well in lessons
Road-safety skills - Teaching children to cycle safely to school will stand them in good stead for the rest of their life and help when they become drivers
Socialising and independence - cycling together with others will enable children to have extra time in the day to build friendships and feel comfortable around other people
We book schools at least a term in advance so please get in touch ASAP if you want to secure specific dates.
Get tailored training at a level suited to your needs, all based on the National Cycle Training Standards and split in to easy to understand modules, choose from:
Basic for beginners - cycling off the road to build skills in local parks or on cycle tracks.
Urban/Intermediate - boost your confidence riding on quiet local roads, back streets and B roads, taking you to the next level!.
Advanced - A roads, complex junctions and busy roads require more advanced skills and knowledge, our advanced courses focus on key routes and commutes.
Courses are available on a one-to-one basis with an instructor at a time and location to suit your needs.
You can also join a group session at the Warrington Cycle Hub or maybe arrange a session for a group of colleagues.
